Tradition and culture of classic sailing
From 14 to 16 May 2026, the Golfo dei Poeti hosted the third edition of Le Vele d’Epoca dell’Alto Tirreno – Trofeo Valdettaro, the event dedicated to historic yachts organised by the Italian Naval League – La Spezia Section together with the Sailing Section of the Italian Navy and Cantiere Valdettaro.
For three days, the scenario of “Le Grazie” at Porto Venere brought together classic and vintage yachts, owners, crews and sailing enthusiasts from Italy and abroad in a celebration of sailing heritage and maritime culture.
Performance and protection for historic yachts
This year once again, Boero Yacht Coatings joined the event as an official sponsor, reaffirming its commitment to supporting and enhancing historic nautical heritage and the culture of classic sailing. A world where technical expertise, quality materials and attention to preservation play a fundamental role in keeping these boats alive over time.
As part of its support for the initiative, Boero Yacht Coatings also awarded the winners with Giraglia, the brand’s premium self-polishing antifouling developed to deliver high performance and long-lasting hull protection.
For Boero Yacht Coatings, supporting events such as the Trofeo Valdettaro means continuing to promote a nautical culture built on expertise and attention to detail — values that have always been part of the brand’s identity and its approach to the yachting world.
